Using Docker, I take snapshots of the container every time I've landed on a useful milestone, thus making it a snap to step back when something goes wrong.Īlso, it allows me to run more than one copy of Plex which I believe is impossible with the QPKG version. Then re-installing Plex is a nightmare - not just because of complexity but because it takes a loooong time if you have a large DB that requires initial rescan over and over again. My main reason for moving to Docker was the need to experiment with Plex, all too often experiencing that things got screwed up and Plex died or corrupted the DB index or just didn't do what I wanted it to do.

I logged in as "admin" both in Putty and in File Station. The purpose is to copy everything from my "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Plex Media Server\" to the new share.īut if I use File Station and browse to the new share, it's empty! I can see subfolder in Putty, but not in File Station. Then I tried to set up a "shared folder" named "Plex Library" and in "custom path" I choosed "/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/PlexMediaServer/Library/Plex Media Server". In the links above, they say that the library should be in "/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/PlexMediaServer/Library/Plex Media Server" and from Putty I can see all the subfolder, so it looks the right place. Then I used the command "getcfg -f /etc/config/nf PlexMediaServer Install_path" in Putty, and the path is "/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/PlexMediaServer".
I installed PMS from the official site, not from the app center. I'm not sure I'm doing things in the right way. I'm trying to follow this bunch of links:īut.
I'm moving everything to my brand new TVS-871-i3-4G (that at the end of all the work it'll have 8x WD Red 6TB in RAID 6). Currently I run PMS on my PC (Windows 10 Pro), with all files stored on my PC (4x WD Red 6TB in RAID 5).
